Planting Faith, Growing Faith: Faith Formation through the Seasons of Learning, training event is for any church educator of any experience level to learn together and support the kind of faith formation that helps your whole congregation/community to “go deeper” in learning, action, and service.
The Commission on Congregational Development is excited to welcome Marie Couts, Director of Christian Education in the Eastern District of the Moravian Church in the Northern Province, to facilitate this engagement and share her knowledge and experience in congregational faith formation with us with two opportunities to join in!


This event is for all those who are part of the team that offers Christian Education to children, youth and adults in the congregation. It is recommended that congregations send at least two participants in order to get the most value for your congregation.
